iirc there are companies working on genome, and you could always fund a specific issue using rysolv (unlike in windows and mac os where you pay them money and can only hope they will fix a problem you have)
Stuff i have learned from headspace and unifiedmindfulness.com , there are probably better sources (like a MBSR course), I will repeat the advice i got to learn from good sources or a good teacher, otherwise you could make a mistake that will make you give up and not get the most benefit from them (and i saw that happen).
The question is how; perhaps through instances? User culture? Or even UX changes that make context harder to ignore and stupid shit sink to the bottom (against the Fluff Principle³)?
A simple and obvious solution is just to adopt the rules of communities on reddit that manage to maintain a average quality of content (askhistorians? r/science?), and building features that help with that (multireddits , so you will have different feeds for "fun" and "important", or user tags) , reddit enhancement suite features could also be helpful.
On twitter, facebook, etc you follow people. Then the algorithm creates a bubble where you only get opinions and points of views you “like”.
But when you use reddit/lemmy the algorithms are based on popularity , which makes it vulnerable demagogy and other cognitive biases (like the tendency of the human mind to be a cognitive miser).
If a chain is as strong as it's weakest link, it is better to use multiple chains, following users allows following people who are
experts and extremely knowledgeable (andrew huberman for example).
If you don't mind me asking, how did you get to this comment? it's over then two years old (and seems like your not the only one because someone upvoted you).
That is a 8 year old article, plus they are a democratic organisation where the board of director is elected by the editors, If they think they need the money to be the best wikipedia they can be i will take their word instead of some website owned by Jeff Bezos (And if i am reading wikipedia articles and learning, I am not wasting money and resources on amazon).
Pace of adoption also seems to be accelerating , from 2009 to about 2016 it went from 0.5 to 1,5 (+ 1 percent), from 2016 to 2023 it went from 1.5 to 3 (+1.5 percent), the adoption also seems to be at least doubling about every decade (which might indicate a "word to mouth" growth pattern.
If you like using Lemmy, and want to make sure that we will always be available to work full time building it, consider donating to support its development
according to my calculations you are at about 6808$ , is that enough?
Might be worth setting up some fundraising goal, for example if you want 10K a month for two devs and the result will be lower that might incentivize people to donate (patreon has that feature, iirc drew devault created software that can add up the results from various platforms) .
And don't be afraid to ask for a salary comparable to other tech companies , you do good meaningful work and deserve every cent (even if you feel like the money is not really needed now, you might start families and those can be expensive ... )
It just needs horizontal so that you could throw more servers at an instance and improve performance.
At some point a single community will be so active that one server won't be enough , it's better not to split it just so that it will be easier for the software.
So, you move to community-run distros, and you start getting used to Debian, or Nix, or whatever else for your own stuff, you want to use that at work as well, and if you’re in a position to push that, you’ll do so.
Except in the long run this also hurts Linux. Because if Red Hat starts making less money, they’ll hire less people, and contribute less to the linux kernel, GNOME, systemd, and other various systems
There are companies that provide commercial support for debian (and probably nix), if iirc.
It's an open standard that enables open source implementation (and several industry supported options exist), most notably IMO xiangshan and vroom
